Introduction to the novel "Young Song Ci and Patrolman Qiu Yingying"
In Lin'an Mansion of the Southern Song Dynasty, a floating corpse unveiled the prelude to a series of murders...
Sixteen-year-old Song Ci is already proficient in medical science and autopsy skills despite his young age. He is the son of a widower from Lin'an Prefecture. When a female body engraved with mysterious symbols is discovered in a stream on the outskirts of the city, he relies on his keen observation to expose the illusion of "drowning" and asserts that this is a carefully disguised murder.
Twenty-one-year-old Qiu Yingying is the only female police officer in Lin'an Prefecture. She is excellent in martial arts but is wary of the officialdom because of her father's unjust case. When she was ordered to investigate the case, she had constant conflicts with this strange young man who was obsessed with corpses, but had to admit his amazing talent for solving crimes.
Symbolic murders occurred one after another. The deceased were all tied up with special techniques and had strange runes carved on their backs. Song Ci discovered through an autopsy that the murderer was proficient in anatomy but disguised it as a Taoist ritual. Qiu Yingying dug out the background of the victim to uncover a cover-up of imperial examination fraud ten years ago.
When the investigation touched on the secrets of the prefect, Qiu Yingying was suspended from office for investigation, and Song Ci was also threatened with death. The two had to support each other in open and covert situations - she taught him self-defense martial arts, and he taught her autopsy skills. When Qiu Yingying was poisoned to protect Song Ci, and the young man took the risk of using acupuncture to force out the poison and guarded her all night, the two proud hearts finally opened to each other.
The most dangerous evidence was hidden in the eyes of the deceased - Song Ci locked the identity of the real murderer from the residual image of the last victim's pupils. At this moment, Qiu Yingying is facing the dark figure coming with a sword alone...
The legendary partnership between a genius boy and a female patrolman used wisdom and wisdom in Lin'an of the Southern Song Dynasty, where conspiracy and death were intertwined.
